I tried T-Mobile for a week while I tried to figure out why no network using applications like Opera, Mapquest, or Google Maps worked. Apparently T-Mobile locks their phones down so only applications signed with T-Mobile's key get permissions to the data API.

How odd. I have not had that problem. I downloaded Google Maps Mobile shortly after getting my RAZR and it's worked just fine. There is no RAZR Opera, which is just as well, since I'd rather not pay for it.

It may also be a function of which phone you have. Some of them come more locked down than others. I had a Samsung SGH-509. You can find people complaining about this problem all over cell phone forums. I was still within my 14 day return period so I just returned the thing.
